Karma, preparation.....but it is still so weird that I had just scheduled my Burning Man tattoo right before the email came. Thanks to all you out there, I am back in love again. Hugs all around!

I'm happy for you! *hughughug* I'm registering in Jan. *keeping my fingers crossed* I may have not had an adventurous life as you, but I'm getting a Man tattoo also!! yeeehaawwww

Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious.

Yay! My girl and I got rewarded two tickets! Congrats to everyone and fingers crossed for all those waiting!!

Now we start preparing

Well I came into work this morning after celebrating my 40th birthday yesterday to find I'd been awarded 4 tickets.... It really is the best birthday present ever. I went to BM for the 1st time this year and it was the best thing ever so to going back next year is amazing... See everyone on the playa. The Man Burns in 261 days..... Mark (in London).

Not a silly question at all grai! This year, I believe Jan. 26 was the date you could turn in your app for the low income ticket. I applied for mine shortly after that. And was awarded a ticket about 2-3 weeks later, then got my ticket about a week or so later.

As I understand, you get the info for applying for low income tickets in January, then apply in March. I could be wrong, as a lot of times I am!!

Sure thing, buddy!(pic snip for brevity)It is the Cecelio-500(intermediate level), about $400 online, and I already had the second bow( although it does come with a hard case and a gig bag, and extra strings).I am pretty stoked tonight!

TOTALLY AWESOME!!with a hardcase even, sweet! I just love it that the guy that drives around a huge flaming penis also plays the cello See you out there

That's awesome! I thought since lots of the people I know received theres quite a few days ago that everyone would have gotten theres by now. This just goes to show that trilo isn't talking shit when he says on or before dec.19th. Congrats to everyone who received a ticket. This is the last day to get the "Christmas Ticket!"

Oh well I am going to have to ignore my buddy. He's doing the same thing he does every year....Hopes his wife will want to go, too. If she went, it would be a miracle. I am going to take responsibility for my own ticket and I bet a billion bunny bucks that my buddy will be selling an extra in June.

I was supposed to be awarded a ticket, but apparently my debit card wouldn't allow the transaction to go through, even though I have way more than enough to cover the charge.

It also says my pre-sale registration won't carry over to the main sale and I'll have to re-register. I thought that if you didn't win tickets in the pre-sale, you were automatically entered in for the main/open sale?

Hi skyhawkecks. If it were a matter of simply not being selected, your registration would roll over automatically into the main sale. The re-registration is specific to card declines--the idea being that if there is something wrong with the card number, expiration date, the bank, etc, you might be able to fix it before registering again.

(If your card was simply rolled over into the main sale without examination, whatever went wrong the first time is more likely happen again.)

Ah, thanks for the clarification! The e-mail I received stated I have until 6 PM to e-mail the Org about researching if there was a bank processing or data entry error. Should I assume that the ticket was already awarded to someone else?
